Monroe St. Emergency Water Shutdown

Due to unexpected circumstances, City crews will be working this morning to repair water infrastructure on Monroe St. The work is expected to take approximately four hours to complete.

In order to complete this work, water service in your area will be shut off. Once service has been restored, you may experience temporary discoloration in your water, and though the water is safe to drink, residents are advised to run the water until it is clear and to avoid washing clothes, especially white fabrics. If any rust stains appear on the wet laundry, the clothes should not be dried, and you should call 311 during normal business hours to receive a free bottle of rust remover.
